Shepard Fairey's Anti-Trump Posters

Shepard Fairey, the artist who created the iconic "Hope" poster
for Democratic Party presidential candidate Barack Obama in 2008,
has produced some striking anti-Trump posters.

One, titled "Demagogue," was done in collaboration with the band
Franz Ferdinand, which wrote and performed a song with the same
name. For more on this Orwellian poster, click here.

Recently, Fairey designed three posters, which displayed images
of Muslim, Latino, and African-American women—with all the
posters using red, white, and blue colors. The most powerful
poster, in my opinion, is shown to the right, of a Muslim woman,
with a flag hijab, seen looking out at viewers. All three
posters were intended to be downloaded and printed for protesters
at the inauguration of Donald Trump in Washington, DC. For more on

Fairey, who created a tee-shirt design for Bernie Sanders in the past
election cycle, did not design anything in support of Hillary
Clinton, who beat Sanders for the Democratic Party's presidential
nomination in 2016, although he did say he would vote for her.
